Twisted-pair Crossover Cables
When making an uplink connection between two hubs (or
between a hub and a switch, a bridge, or other Ethernet device)
using MDI-
X type jacks at both ends, you must use a crossover
cable. In a crossover cable, two pairs of wires are switched at
one end. Carry out the following steps to create a crossover
twisted-pair cable:
1.
Leave one end of the cable as -is, with the wiring on the
RJ-45 connector unchanged. The wiring needs to be
modified at one end only.
2.
At the other end of the cable, connect wire 1 from the
unchanged connector to wire position 2, connect wire 3
to wire position 6, connect wires 3 to wire position 1
and connect wire 1 to wire position 2. Refer to the
following diagram:
